Season ticket holders at Lobatse Stadium haven’t seen too many victories this season, with Extension Gunners languishing in the 12th position so far. The guesting BR Highlanders will be hopeful to defend their higher league position in this one.
There should be plenty of energy on the pitch in this game, as both sides have had time to recuperate from their last game. Let's hope both teams are ready to give it all.
This pitch has grass, which is not BR Highlanders's usual surface at their own ground. When playing on grass BR Highlanders have performed like this: Played ten matches resulting in 3 wins, 3 draws and 4 defeats with the goal stats 9-12 (scored/conceded).
Extension Gunners form and stats
With 2 Premier League wins, 1 draw and 7 defeats from their home games, Extension Gunners, who have the most conceded goals (26) at home in Premier League, are certainly not brimming with confidence. The season ticket holders are starting to dread their visits here at Lobatse Stadium, with the home team losing five in a row. They have not avoided a defeat here since the Gaborone United game.
The Extension Gunners fans got no joy from their last match, a Premier League game also here at Lobatse Stadium: A 1-4 defeat against BDF XI (placed 8th). A strong away win before that one, visiting TAFIC and winning 2-0.
A decent goal production from Extension Gunners in their home games so far, with 16 goals from 10 league matches. As for conceded goals, Extension Gunners's unpleasant statistic is 26 goals surrendered.
BR Highlanders form and stats
BR Highlanders have an excellent away record in the Premier League so far with 5-2-1 from 8 games. The away team travel with confidence. Not since the Prisons XI game have they lost an away game, meaning BR Highlanders has taken points from seven away matches in a row.
This game can not go any worse than the last one, a Premier League home defeat versus Galaxy with 0-4 on the scoreboard. A home win before that, celebrating 2-0 vs Morupule Wanderers.
As you can see from the result above, the defeat against Galaxy was particularly ugly (0-4). The humiliation is still top of mind.
